2.5 Preparation and Administration Preparation Instructions Use aseptic technique and radiation shielding when handling or administering PLUVICTO, using tongs as needed to minimize radiation exposure. Inspect the product visually under a shielded screen for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration. Discard the vial if particulates and/or discoloration are present. Do not inject the PLUVICTO solution directly into any other intravenous solution. Confirm the amount of radioactivity of PLUVICTO delivered to the patient with an appropriately calibrated dose calibrator prior to and after each PLUVICTO administration. Dispose of any unused medicinal product or waste material in accordance with local and federal laws. Administration Instructions Prior to administration, flush the intravenous catheter used exclusively for PLUVICTO administration with ≥ 10 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP to ensure patency and to minimize the risk of extravasation. Manage cases of extravasation as per institutional guidelines. The recommended dosage of PLUVICTO may be administered intravenously as an injection using the syringe method, as an infusion using the gravity method, or as an infusion using the peristaltic pump method. When using the gravity or peristaltic pump method, infuse PLUVICTO directly from its original container. Use the syringe method or the peristaltic pump method when administering a reduced dose of PLUVICTO following a dosage modification for an adverse reaction. When using the gravity method for a reduced dose, adjust the PLUVICTO dose before the administration to avoid the delivery of an incorrect volume of PLUVICTO. Intravenous Methods of Administration Instructions for the Syringe Method Withdraw an appropriate volume of PLUVICTO solution to deliver the desired radioactivity by using a disposable syringe fitted with a syringe shield and a disposable sterile needle that is 9 cm, 18 gauge (long needle). To aid the withdrawal of the solution, a filtered 2.5 cm, 20 gauge needle (short venting needle) can be used to reduce the resistance from the pressurized vial. Ensure that the short needle does not touch the PLUVICTO solution in the vial. Administer PLUVICTO to the patient by slow intravenous push within approximately 1 to 10 minutes (either with a syringe pump or manually without a syringe pump) via an intravenous catheter that is primed with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP and that is used exclusively for PLUVICTO administration to the patient. If using a syringe pump, fit the syringe into the shielded pump and include a 3-way stopcock valve between the syringe and an intravenous catheter primed with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP and used for PLUVICTO administration to the patient. When the desired PLUVICTO radioactivity has been delivered, stop the syringe pump and then change the position of the 3-way stopcock valve to flush the syringe with 25 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. Restart the syringe pump. After the flush of the syringe has been completed, perform an intravenous flush of ≥ 10 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP through the intravenous catheter to the patient. Instructions for the Gravity Method Insert a 2.5 cm, 20 gauge needle (short needle) into the PLUVICTO vial and connect via a catheter to 500 mL 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP (used to transport the PLUVICTO solution during the infusion). Ensure that the short needle does not touch the PLUVICTO solution in the vial and do not connect the short needle directly to the patient. Do not allow the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP to flow into the PLUVICTO vial prior to the initiation of the PLUVICTO infusion and do not inject the PLUVICTO solution directly into the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. Insert a second needle that is 9 cm, 18 gauge (long needle) into the PLUVICTO vial, ensuring that the long needle touches and is secured to the bottom of the PLUVICTO vial during the entire infusion. Connect the long needle to the patient by an intravenous catheter that is primed with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP and that is used exclusively for the PLUVICTO infusion into the patient. Use a clamp or an infusion pump to regulate the flow of the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP via the short needle into the PLUVICTO vial (the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP entering the vial through the short needle will carry the PLUVICTO solution from the vial to the patient via the intravenous catheter connected to the long needle within approximately 30 minutes). During the infusion, ensure that the level of solution in the PLUVICTO vial remains constant. Disconnect the vial from the long needle line and clamp the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP line once the level of radioactivity is stable for at least five minutes. Follow the infusion with an intravenous flush of ≥ 10 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP through the intravenous catheter to the patient. Instructions for the Peristaltic Pump Method Insert a filtered 2.5 cm, 20 gauge needle (short venting needle) into the PLUVICTO vial. Ensure that the short needle does not touch the PLUVICTO solution in the vial and do not connect the short needle directly to the patient or to the peristaltic pump. Insert a second needle that is 9 cm, 18 gauge (long needle) into the PLUVICTO vial, ensuring that the long needle touches and is secured to the bottom of the PLUVICTO vial during the entire infusion. Connect the long needle and a 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP to a 3-way stopcock valve via appropriate tubing. Connect the output of the 3-way stopcock valve to tubing installed on the input side of the peristaltic pump according to manufacturer’s instructions. Prime the line by opening the 3-way stopcock valve and pumping the PLUVICTO solution through the tubing until it reaches the exit of the valve. Prime the intravenous catheter which will be connected to the patient by opening the 3-way stopcock valve to the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP and pumping the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP until it exits the end of the catheter tubing. Connect the primed intravenous catheter to the patient and set the 3-way stopcock valve such that the PLUVICTO solution is in line with the peristaltic pump. Infuse an appropriate volume of PLUVICTO solution at approximately 25 mL/h to deliver the desired radioactivity. When the desired PLUVICTO radioactivity has been delivered, stop the peristaltic pump and then change the position of the 3-way stopcock valve so that the peristaltic pump is in line with the 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. Restart the peristaltic pump and infuse an intravenous flush of ≥ 10 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP through the intravenous catheter to the patient.

2.6 Radiation Dosimetry Dosimetry of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan was collected in 29 patients in the VISION sub-study, in order to calculate whole body and organ radiation dosimetry. The mean and standard deviation (SD) of the estimated radiation absorbed doses to different organs for adults receiving PLUVICTO are shown in Table 2. The organs with the highest radiation absorbed doses are lacrimal glands, salivary glands, large intestine (left and right colon), kidneys, and urinary bladder wall. The maximum penetration of lutetium-177 in tissue is approximately 2 mm and the mean penetration is 0.67 mm. Table 2: Estimated Radiation Absorbed Dose a for PLUVICTO in VISION a Radiation absorbed dose estimates were derived using OLINDA v2.4 radiation dosimetry software, using measured time-activity data from patient imaging as input. Specific methods and software used for bone marrow and osteogenic cells dosimetry estimates are included below: * Estimated radiation absorbed dose based on activity measured in blood samples collected from patients, and dosimetry calculations using OLINDA v2.4. ** Estimated radiation absorbed dose based on activity measured in patient imaging (voxelized analysis of measured activity in bone marrow regions approximately 1 cm adjacent to bone metastasis activity within the vertebrae T8-L5) from 81 individual volume of interest (VOI) collected from 28 patients, and dosimetry calculations using Hermia Voxel Dosimetry v3.1.0.

Warnings and precautions

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Risk From Radiation Exposure : Minimize radiation exposure during and after treatment with PLUVICTO consistent with institutional good radiation safety practices and patient treatment procedures. Ensure patients increase oral fluid intake and advise patients to void as often as possible to reduce bladder radiation. ( 5.1 ) Myelosuppression : Perform complete blood counts. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue PLUVICTO based on severity. ( 2.4 , 5.2 ) Renal Toxicity : Advise patients to remain well hydrated and to urinate frequently. Perform kidney function laboratory tests. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue PLUVICTO based on severity. ( 2.4 , 5.3 ) Embryo-Fetal Toxicity : Can cause fetal harm. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception. ( 5.4 , 8.1 , 8.3 ) Infertility : PLUVICTO may cause temporary or permanent infertility. ( 5.5 , 8.3 )

5.1 Risk From Radiation Exposure PLUVICTO contributes to a patient’s overall long-term cumulative radiation exposure. Long-term cumulative radiation exposure is associated with an increased risk for cancer. Minimize radiation exposure to patients, medical personnel, and others during and after treatment with PLUVICTO consistent with institutional good radiation safety practices, patient treatment procedures, Nuclear Regulatory Commission patient-release guidance, and instructions to the patient for follow-up radiation protection at home. Ensure patients increase oral fluid intake and advise patients to void as often as possible to reduce bladder radiation. Before the patient is released, inform patients about the necessary radioprotection precautions to follow to minimize radiation exposure to others [see Patient Counseling Information (17)] . After each administration of PLUVICTO, advise patients to: Limit close contact (less than 3 feet) with others for 2 days or with children and pregnant women for 7 days. Refrain from sexual activity for 7 days. Sleep in a separate room from others for 3 days, from children for 7 days, or from pregnant women for 15 days.

5.2 Myelosuppression PLUVICTO can cause severe and life-threatening myelosuppression, including anemia, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, and neutropenia. In the PSMAddition study, Grade 3 or 4 decreased leukocytes (7%), decreased neutrophils (4.4%), decreased hemoglobin (4.3%), and decreased platelets (1.1%) occurred in patients treated with PLUVICTO. In the PSMAfore study, Grade 3 or 4 decreased hemoglobin (7%), decreased leukocytes (4.4%), decreased neutrophils (3.5%), and decreased platelets (2.7%) occurred in patients treated with PLUVICTO. One death occurred due to bone marrow failure during long-term follow-up in a patient who received PLUVICTO. In the VISION study, Grade 3 or 4 decreased hemoglobin (15%), decreased platelets (9%), decreased leukocytes (7%), and decreased neutrophils (4.5%) occurred in patients treated with PLUVICTO. Grade ≥ 3 pancytopenia occurred in 1.1% (which includes two fatal events) of patients treated with PLUVICTO. Two deaths (0.4%) occurred due to intracranial hemorrhage and subdural hematoma in association with thrombocytopenia, one death (0.2%) occurred due to sepsis and concurrent neutropenia, and one death (0.2%) occurred due to bone marrow failure in patients treated with PLUVICTO. Perform complete blood counts before and during treatment with PLUVICTO. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue PLUVICTO based on the severity of myelosuppression [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)] .

5.3 Renal Toxicity PLUVICTO can cause severe renal toxicity. In the PSMAddition study, Grade 3 or 4 acute kidney injury (1.6%) occurred in patients treated with PLUVICTO. In the PSMAfore study, Grade 3 or 4 acute kidney injury (1.3%) occurred in patients treated with PLUVICTO. In the VISION study, Grade 3 or 4 acute kidney injury (3.4%) occurred in patients treated with PLUVICTO. Advise patients to remain well hydrated and to urinate frequently before and after administration of PLUVICTO. Perform kidney function laboratory tests, including serum creatinine and calculated creatinine clearance (CLcr), before and during treatment with PLUVICTO. Withhold, reduce dose, or permanently discontinue PLUVICTO based on the severity of renal toxicity [see Dosage and Administration (2.4)] .

5.4 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity The safety and efficacy of PLUVICTO have not been established in females. Based on its mechanism of action, PLUVICTO can cause fetal harm [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)] . No animal studies using lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan have been conducted to evaluate its effect on female reproduction and embryo-fetal development; however, radioactive emissions, including those from PLUVICTO, can cause fetal harm. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with PLUVICTO and for 14 weeks after the last dose [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3)] .

5.5 Infertility PLUVICTO may cause infertility in males. The recommended cumulative dose of 44.4 GBq of PLUVICTO results in a radiation absorbed dose to the testes within the range where PLUVICTO may cause temporary or permanent infertility [see Use in Specific Populations (8.3)] .

Overdosage

In the event of administration of a radiation overdosage with PLUVICTO, reduce the radiation absorbed dose to the patient by increasing the elimination of the radionuclide from the body by frequent micturition or by forced diuresis and frequent bladder voiding. Estimate the effective radiation dose that was applied and treat with additional supportive care measures as clinically indicated.

Use in specific populations

8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary The safety and efficacy of PLUVICTO have not been established in females. Based on its mechanism of action, PLUVICTO can cause fetal harm [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)] . There are no available data on PLUVICTO use in pregnant females.

Clinical pharmacology

12.1 Mechanism of Action Lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan is a radioligand therapeutic agent. The active moiety of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan is the radionuclide lutetium-177 which is linked to a moiety that binds to PSMA, a transmembrane protein that is expressed in prostate cancer. Upon binding of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan to PSMA-expressing cells, the beta-minus emission from lutetium-177 delivers radiation to PSMA-expressing cells, as well as to surrounding cells, and induces DNA damage which can lead to cell death.

12.2 Pharmacodynamics Lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan exposure-efficacy relationships and the time course of pharmacodynamic response have not been fully characterized. Cardiac Electrophysiology At the recommended dosage, PLUVICTO does not cause large mean increases (> 20 ms) in the QTc interval.

12.3 Pharmacokinetics Pharmacokinetics of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan are expressed as geometric mean (geometric mean coefficient of variation) unless otherwise specified. The blood lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan area under the curve (AUC) is 52.3 ng.h/mL (31.4%) and the maximum blood concentration (C max ) is 6.58 ng/mL (43.5%) at the recommended dosage. Distribution Lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan volume of distribution is 123 L (78.1%). Within 2.5 hours after administration, lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan distributes in gastrointestinal tract, liver, lungs, kidneys, heart wall, bone marrow, and salivary glands. Vipivotide tetraxetan and non-radioactive lutetium vipivotide tetraxetan are 60% to 70% bound to human plasma proteins. Elimination The lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan terminal elimination half-life is 41.6 hours (68.8%) and the clearance (CL) is 2.04 L/h (31.5%). Metabolism Lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan does not undergo hepatic or renal metabolism. Excretion Lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan is primarily eliminated renally. Specific Populations Exposure (AUC) of lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan increased with decreasing creatinine clearance (CLcr). The effect of baseline CLcr < 54 mL/min on lutetium Lu 177 vipivotide tetraxetan pharmacokinetics has not been studied.
